Re: [Chrysler300] J & K Solid Cam - Repro Regrind or Replace ?

["Charles M. Kreszock" <kreszockcm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Gil,

Just checked.  This is what I found.

Jim C. Hyder
150 Unaka Subdivision Rd
  Elizabethton,?  TN?  37643-5637
(423) 474-3142 ?

The old telephone number is listed to  Bettie?Belcher at a private 
residence.

No listing for Camcraft in Elizabethton.
